New Jersey Governor and potential 2016 presidential candidate Chris Christie said during a speech at a forum on drug and alcohol abuse that he is pro-life and he tied his opposition to abortion to his respect for human life, chrischristie4saying he is pro-life both before and after birth.

Governor Christie is holding a townhall in Brick, NJ today at 3 PM. I signed up to go, and got a confirming call from the Governor's office yesterday.

Governor Chris Christie makes news again with his courage on taking on one of the most powerful and corrupt unions in America…the Teacher’s Unions! “Parents and children who are being failed by a public school system who’s costs are exorbitant and who’s results are insulting, deserve a choice!… There are over 5 million children trapped in over 10,000 failing public schools around America…I use the word trapped directly. They are trapped by an educational buraecracy, they are trapped by a selfish, self-interested, greedy school union that cares more about putting money in their own pocket and the pocket of their...

Rush Limbaugh is on record protesting the fact that public school teachers are only paying in a fraction of the millions they take out in retirement, cheering on new New Jersey governor Christie. As the spouse of a public school teacher, I think some clarification is in order.
